Understanding Prophase in Mitosis

This video tutorial from MooMooMath and Science explains the first stage of mitosis, known as prophase. During prophase, DNA condenses into chromosomes, the nuclear membrane breaks down, and centrioles produce spindle fibers. These fibers attach to chromosomes and facilitate their movement within the cell. The video concludes with a summary of these key events and encourages viewers to subscribe for more educational content.

What is the first stage of mitosis discussed in the video?

• Metaphase

• Anaphase

• Prophase

• Telophase

During prophase, what happens to the DNA?

• It remains unchanged

• It dissolves

• It condenses into chromosomes

• It splits into two

What is the role of spindle fibers during prophase?

• They dissolve the nuclear membrane

• They attach to chromosomes and help move them

• They form the cell wall

• They split the DNA

What happens to the nuclear membrane during prophase?

• It breaks down

• It thickens

• It remains intact

• It duplicates

Which structure begins to form spindle fibers in prophase?

• Ribosomes

• Nucleus

• Mitochondria

• Centrioles
